This looks like a bug. When we run our mouse over an component a pop up should appear.

It works when our mouse enters from the component from the left, right and above (mouse moving downwards). However, if our mouse enters the component from bottom (moving our mouse upwards) it does not trigger the pop up.

this is for envent onMouseOver and onMouseEnter.

Can anyone please show me how to write this script to trigger the pop up words "Click to Download" whenever the cursor is over the button?

Thanks for moving this into a new topic:

> If you're using a recent enough version of Ignition, you can just use the tooltip property that's in the Meta section. Make sure enabled is checked and add the text you want. You can also set the style to whatever you want, and adjust the delay to make it appear sooner or later.

@Wendy_Minai1 : An answer was already provided in the other thread you posted in. Please explain in _that_ thread why the proposed solution does not work for you instead of posting the same question in multiple threads.

@cmallonee Thats an oversight on my end. I should have deleted this post
